For the uninitiated, Elixir Boutique Roasters shares the same shop space as Fat Belly. It’s their way of experimenting with a daytime menu. Nestled away at Serene Centre, the cafe is only a stone’s throw away from public transport (Botanic Gardens MRT station)

My partner and I settled on the “Wagyu Beef Cheek Rendang” and “Truffle Eggs Prosciutto”.

The meat in their “Wagyu Beef Cheek Rendang” was soft and tender. My knife cut through it without so much of a resistance. The fragrant sauce was consistent but not cloying. Paired with blue pea rice, rice crackers and some vegetables, it made for a hearty and well-rounded (not to mention, visually appealing) dish.

The “Truffle Eggs Prosciutto” featured aromatic scrambled eggs atop a fluffy and thick brioche toast. Parma ham and shaved truffle are also thrown into the mix, further enhancing the already great dish. Every mouthful brought flavour and delight to the pair of us.

I’ve heard only good things about their French toasts from my sweet-toothed friends and I’m already looking forward to my next visit. So if you’re looking for your next brunch place, look no further than Elixir Boutique Roasters.
